Allnic Audio T-2000 30th Anniversary Integrated Amplifier | REVIEW

September 19, 2021 Marc Phillips 5

You know how I used to start off each of my integrated amplifier reviews with an opening paragraph on why I love integrated amplifiers? Yes, I made a promise not to do that ever again, […]

Jeff Rowland Design Group Capri S2-SC and Model 125 | REVIEW

August 29, 2021 Marc Phillips 4

The Jeff Rowland Design Group Capri S2-SC preamplifier and Model 125 amplifier are soooooo tiny. How tiny are they? When the boxes arrived at my front door, I said “This can’t be right. These boxes […]

Grover’s Wrap-Up and Best of Show | T.H.E. SHOW 2021

July 8, 2021 Grover Neville 2

THE SHOW 2021 was, by my estimation, a reason for cautious optimism. Everything appeared to go off without a hitch, attendees were well-behaved and plentiful enough, and exhibitors seemed pleased by the amount and depth […]

McIntosh C49 Preamplifier and MC312 Power Amplifier | REVIEW

July 2, 2021 Graig Neville 1

I feel like I’m the designated Part-Time Audiophile power lifter lately. I received another freight shipment containing the McIntosh C49 preamplifier and MC312 power amplifier, weighing in at back squat workout weight of 234 lbs. […]

Atlas Cables Grun Coherent Earthing System | REVIEW

June 27, 2021 Marc Phillips 1

The Grun Earthing System from Atlas Cables is the third product I’ve reviewed in the last year that addresses grounding in your high-end audio system. The first two products, of course, were the Nordost QKORE […]

Sunil Merchant of Sunny Components, a Stenheim dealer right here in Southern California, was putting on perhaps the most trafficked and popular room of the show. The room was so popular that despite being one of […]

Technics SL-1210GAE Anniversary Turntable and Hana Umami Red Cartridge | REVIEW

May 30, 2021 Mohammed Samji 4

To say the Technics (website) SL-1200 is a legend is an understatement. Rumor has it that they sold 3.5 to 4 million SL-1200s over its 50+ year history. Its distinct look, reliability and smooth pitch […]

AudioQuest GroundGoody Jupiter and Saturn Tonearm and Ground Wire | REVIEW

May 28, 2021 Marc Phillips 3

I thought that the AudioQuest GroundGoody ground wire was going to be, by far, the simplest of these new earthing products I’ve set out to review. After spending time with the Nordost QKORE grounding system, […]

AVM Ovation 6.2 Master Edition Integrated Amplifier | REVIEW

May 7, 2021 Marc Phillips 1

The AVM Ovation 6.2 Master Edition integrated amplifier just kind of snuck in here, made its impression, and left in just a few weeks. My time with it was so short, so fleeting. I didn’t […]

AudioQuest Assortment with Graig Neville | REVIEW

April 23, 2021 Graig Neville 1

[Editor’s note–I’d like to welcome to Graig Neville to the tricky, sometimes treacherous but ultimately necessary world of cable reviewing. As Graig fine-tuned his system into a reviewer’s reference, he chose an AudioQuest assortment to […]

Wilson Audio ActivXO & WATCH Dog Subwoofer | Review

December 20, 2020 Mohammed Samji 1

Does a 260-pound loudspeaker that packs an 8- and 10-inch driver need any re-enforcement in the lower octaves? Add in a delicious amplifier that can generate 500 watts at 4 ohms with ease and you […]

Rotel A14 Integrated Amplifier | REVIEW

  Why in the world would I want to review the Rotel A14 (website), an integrated amplifier with DAC and phono stage and headphone amplifier all sorts of features for just $1500? What is this, […]

Rosson Audio Design RAD-0 Headphone | REVIEW

October 16, 2020 Brian Hunter Comments Off on Rosson Audio Design RAD-0 Headphone | REVIEW

To some, describing a headphone as “fun” is akin to the kiss of death. The calling for linearity occasionally spurs dynamic swings in opinions, and even greater judgments in the comment sections and forums. Whatever […]

Sonus faber Lumina III Loudspeakers | REVIEW

October 11, 2020 Marc Phillips 3

After spending the first 24 hours with the new Sonus faber Lumina III loudspeakers, here’s what I came up with. First, imagine you’re not an audiophile. You’re just a consumer looking for a nice pair […]

Wilson Audio Pedestal | REVIEW

September 26, 2020 Mohammed Samji 1

Over the years, we’ve tried endless numbers of tweaks to get the most out of our components. Some work, others don’t, and some behave as un-wanted tone controls. It’s a puzzle that every audiophile loves […]
